i think they've they've made a rod for their own back and they're going to end up having to drop it but i don't think they'll do it anytime soon probably it twists and turns of join us and as long running sagar are on our website and our t. down also there you can watch all the additions of the wiki leak or zone interview program including the one where he talks to ecuadorian president rafael correct. there hasn't been anything yet on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact on. the source material is one hopes he journalism on we. we wanted to present. something of. a long lasting conflict between israel and the palestinians continue this with new evidence of children in the front line testimonies of former israeli soldiers and
7:08 am
a shocking video of how they separated a mother from her daughter in a small palestinian village have taken the strife to a whole new level policy reports from tel aviv. there were demonstrations as indeed there are even weekend now big seller which is a palestinian village in footage that was captured on camera these soldiers can be seen going from house to house and physically taking people out of their homes one person was injured at least six people were arrested five of whom were children and there are pictures of the daughters of one woman trying to save their mother as she was manhandled by the soldiers who were or signaling stun grenades now these reports come hot on the heels of another damning conclusion there israeli defense forces has come under fire from its own rank and file an organization known as breaking the silence has published the testimonies of some thirty israeli soldiers and commanders and which they deal specifically with how the i.d.f.
7:09 am
treats palestinian children palestinian minors they talk about the arbitrary use of violence by soldiers when it comes to children and at the same time they say that very often the idea of deliberately targets children using them as human shields during its operations but these reports also go on to say that even when children are not deliberately targeted they are not afforded any kind of protection when there is a shootout or any kind of military operation as you can witness from that distance that we published and from my own experiences as a soldier i have to say that the main point here is that there is there is no real distinction when it comes to treatment between adults and children for example we were doing constant arrest operations throughout the west bank arresting i don't know how many people you know on a nightly basis and many of the people that we were arresting were either children or teenagers did the most occasions we didn't even know why they were being arrested in one of the raid operations to it we had to basically invaded the

palestinian town south of the city of hebron the children started throwing stones at us so it's on point we picked a random kid that didn't even necessarily threw stones at us and used him as a shoe. it distills it will being thrown by his friends by his supposed friends who did him instead of us we were hoping that that would stop him somehow that would stop his friends from throwing stones obviously didn't help him he just got injured in the indication so certainly not a good time for the i.d.f. it's finding a been criticised on a number of fronts. r.t. television and certainly is reminiscent of the case of pro palestinian us activist rachel corrie who was crushed by an israeli army borders or in two thousand and three the twenty three year old was taking part in a demonstration trying to stop palestinian homes from being destroyed in garza. or that israel was not at fault but journalist tom dale who witnessed corey's death
7:11 am
claims israel is trying to sweep the incident under the rock. it's tremendously just pointing out on the basis of what i saw on that day in two thousand and three it's absolutely not possible to characterize what happened next to them in my view so i told the coach and as i told the israeli military before the bulldozer driver . a very long drive up. before he got to rachel during which time he must have been able to see even on the base of the visitors' shots presented to the court by the threat of military. had both took the bull's eye sublight just before she was crushed and she came with an amount of trying to escape so my mind absolutely no doubt that he would have seen on this but it represents a want watching what happened on that day a culture in the israeli military impunity for such crimes and that culture impunity is the scylla take it fortunately sometimes by the courts who
7:12 am
deliberately turn a blind eye of course the main shoulders on which for the palestinian shoulders better because europe is full of civilians almost every area is a civilian and so the israeli government to say we refuse to treat anyone in this area especially given that human rights because we've given it this particular name . coachmen treasonable happy to me i think that's just me serving that responsibility. this week iran was at the center of the global political stand showing them to spy and economic sanctions and widespread vilification it's not as isolated as largely believed delegations from over one hundred states gathered in tehran for the nonaligned movement summit a group of nations who don't consider themselves part of any power block dozens of country leaders attended including egypt's newly elected president mohamed morsi watch mark the first visit to iran nine egyptian head of state since the nineteenth

seventeen on islamic revolution the significance of the meeting was also underlined by the presence of the u.n. chief o'kane despite the u.s. and israel discouraging him settle independent researcher soraya said before all rich explains what this says about iran's role in the region and in the world mr prime ki-moon does recognize the fact that he has to. keep players in the region and nothing much really can be solved you flowers if you want participation and i'm sure that the united states and israel would like news to ban ki moon to come down hard on iran but he's also aware of the fact there's two thirds of the countries that belong to the united nations are member countries of the nine aligned movement the united states state department likes to say many things and i think that's precisely because they do tend to be very aggressive in their foreign policy
7:14 am
towards certain countries to close although i think they have the whole goal in mind they would love to be a global vision monic power. the nonaligned movement now is one hundred percent coming together to resist this kind of aggression to resist this kind of double standards and hypocrisy and i think that's probably really thinking of the united states this point. they summoned into her own resulted in a declaration stating every nation's right to peaceful development and to use of nuclear energy seen as a backing of iran's controversial nuclear program it came just as a new report by the un atomic watchdog emerged accusing the islamic state of stepping up its uranium enrichment geo political analyst eric draitser says the timing of the release shows the i.a.e.a. is anything but unbiased be a rainy ins first of all they believe that they have the inherent right according
7:15 am
to the nuclear nonproliferation treaty that they have the right to have a nuclear program so long as it's for peaceful purposes as is now accepted international law the united states and israel too to a large extent are terribly embarrassed about the fact that the nonaligned movement summit has gone off as a tremendous success and the fact that many around the world are seeing the n.a.m. summit as really iran's coming out party in terms of geopolitics in terms of their position on the world stage and so the timing of the report i think is is in fact dubious and i would go further and remind people that the a e a in many ways is part of what the leader in iran called the overt dictatorship of the united nations that is to say that the i.a.e.a. is always led by us produced think tank individuals like eldora di or his predecessors who will inevitably execute the agenda of the western powers regardless of whether that contravenes international law here with r.t.

some voters feel they are left with much of a choice in the next hour author andrew levine shares what he sees as the flaws america's electoral system here's a preview. at the level of underlying political vision or underlying political orientation there isn't that much difference and romney would probably be perfectly happy doing what obama does we have a media which is so thoroughly controlled and all the institutions that manufacture opinion are so pervasive and our electoral system has become basically if i can advertising it's become a sales promotion's there are brands and there are people trying to sell different products one of two products to a product and it's. a pressure that not all it's not so much of the pressure that hard to resist it's a pressure that most people or most people aren't even aware that there is an alternative. time now for some

in saudi arabia which backs it up with billions of dollars of support across the muslim world its followers often oppose all other religions sometimes even calling for jihad holy war against them but any other radical movement of us live of course not part of the official religion here but i thought the same different ideas often taught in small mosques hidden from the mainstream. like this one form a boiler house we build into a mosque in one of gazans many apartment block you aren't it's the moms denying being radical but admit they do not support their stance of visual branches of islam. we don't divide brother muslims and there can be no radicalism no terrorism these are words only used by prove a kidders who want to discredit islam. we were told here believers are taught sincerely any quality and there are no longer up held in modern society with justice can only be achieved through islam and when someone says islam is the only
